This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a strategy to improve resource provisioning in heterogeneous cloud environments. The strategy uses an electronic auction model that considers workload selection factors like job deadlines and CPU time. It also presents workflow optimization logic to minimize costs while meeting performance requirements. The strategy employs fault tolerance services using job migration. It is evaluated based on metrics like execution time, makespan time, migration frequency and energy consumption, showing improved performance over existing approaches. Future work plans to introduce new resource provisioning mechanisms considering load, energy and network factors to optimize resource selection and reduce transmission costs and times.
